Features:

• Images greater than maximum width and height settings in Admin Control Panel will be resized.
• Links surrounding attachments automatically removed.

Maximum attachment image dimensions selection:
Although the screenshot above says you can use 0 or blank, this add-on requires you to use a positive value for the Maximum attachment image dimensions settings. I suggest using 2500 x 2500.

Admin control panel -> Setup -> Options -> Attachments -> Maximum attachment image dimensions

3. Click the 'Prepare rebuild table' link.
4. Go to the Tools menu in the Admin control panel and click 'Convert all images to attachments' link.

Question and Answers:

A: Several hours is normal.

Q: Some hot linked image are not converted, why is this?
A: If a hot linked image is either too small or too large, or the dimensions are not able to be read, those images are not converted and will require manual conversion.
